Provider Connect Australia™ (also known as PCA™) is an initiative of the Australian Digital Health Agency to help healthcare provider organisations update their business information in a single source. This improves the accuracy of healthcare service and practitioner information, while reducing duplication and streamlining notifications.
Helping healthcare providers
Healthcare provider organisations can use PCA™ to provide consistent, up-to-date information about healthcare services to funders, health service directories, communication services, and other key partners in your healthcare service delivery.
Once registered with PCA™, healthcare providers can update their business information and choose to automatically send updates to their connected business partners.
Over time, business partners will include funders, public service directories, secure messaging providers and more.
This means you can maintain a single master copy of your organisation’s details and your chosen business partners will automatically receive any updates.
PCA™ will save time, reduce human error and remove the hassle of filling out multiple forms.
Support
